Now, 135 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: we are just one day away from the Fed's preferred 136 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: inflation rating, the PCEE de Flator.

Inflation does look some to me as 145 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 15: is under control, and it's you know, the last thing 146 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 15: you want is for to fall below target. 147 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: A zero security is dominant constant. Bloomberg Economics expects May's 148 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: monthly core PCE inflation reading to be the slowest yet 149 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: this year.

Their manager is 208 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 4: Carlos Mendoza. 209 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 17: We wear a few weeks ago, you know, to be 210 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 17: in this position now. He's important knowing that we still 211 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 17: got work to do, and we got long ways to go, 212 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 17: you know. But from theater, the same approach, one day 213 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 17: at a time, one game at a time, one series 214 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 17: out of time. 215 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 4: So the Yankees a little more than two weeks ago, 216 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 4: they had played twenty series and only lost two.

The Orioles ended a five game 222 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 4: losing straight four to two over Cleveland, and Baltimore's only 223 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 4: a game behind the Yanks. The NBA drafts first round 224 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 4: held in Brooklyn. They'll have Round two tonight. French teenagers 225 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 4: led the way the year after Victor Webbinyama went first overall. 226 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 4: Atlanta began the night taking Zachary Rezache Washington followed with 227 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 4: Alex starras seven foot or another youngster from France went 228 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 4: sixth overall, and the Knicks took an eighteen year old 229 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 4: from France, a Liot. The bigger story for the Knicks 230 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 4: the ESPN report that oj Nnobi is staying in New 231 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 4: York after opting out but coming to free agent.

They named the roster for the US 235 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 4: Women's Olympic soccer squad and I'll long time start the team. 236 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 4: Alex Morgan, now thirty four, got cut.

We're joined by 247 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 2: Tina Fordham, the founder and geopolitical strategist at Fordham Global Foresight. Tina, 248 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 2: good morning. I don't think we've had any two better 249 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 2: known candidates heading into a debate than the tour they 250 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: were going to meet tonight. How much could this debate 251 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: really change voters' minds? 252 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 5: Well more than debates typically do. 253 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 6: Right, So, first of all, the timing US presidential debate 254 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 6: comes earlier in the cycle than normal, and there is 255 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 6: more writing on this contest where we have so many 256 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 6: registered independents and so many. 257 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 5: Voters who dislike both candidates. 258 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 2: When you have that level of dislike, though, I mean, 259 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 2: with the coming this early, I mean, can this debate 260 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 2: really have an impact on how voters come down in November? 261 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 5: Well, they definitely can. 262 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 6: This is the first time we'll see these two candidates 263 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 6: side by side. 264 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 5: Since twenty twenty. 265 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 6: I think the level of the narrative is such that 266 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 6: if Joe Biden manages to stand up and be sentient, 267 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 6: he's winning. You know, such has been the low expectations 268 00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 6: for him, and the bar is lower for Trump. He's 269 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 6: a reality TV star, of course, and he will get 270 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 6: I think a huge points for making any kind of policy. 271 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 5: Discussion that's you know, that's that's. 272 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 6: Sane and credible, but it'll be a form of entertainment, 273 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 6: especially for political junkies like me. 274 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, these debates tend to be that way. I mean, 275 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: we always look for the style points, But is there 276 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: a chance for substance to break through in a format 277 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 2: where the mics are going to be cut off when 278 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 2: they're not talking and there's not going to be an audience. 279 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,119 Speaker 5: So those are two unprecedented changes. 280 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 6: Trump of course thrives on his studio audience, and that's 281 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 6: where there is room for, you know, surprises on the 282 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 6: upside and the downside the cutting off of mics. 283 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 5: They both need to keep their cool. 284 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 6: Remember in the last debate, Joe Biden was heard muttering 285 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 6: under his breath. 286 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 5: Shut up man. 287 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 6: You know. Will they get on each other's nerves or 288 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 6: will they talk about the issues that matter most to Americans, 289 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 6: which is the economy and. 290 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 2: Inflation and so on those issues in particular. Could we 291 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 2: see this as a market moving event depending on what 292 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 2: kinds of points the candidates make this evening. 293 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 6: I think one of them would have to suffer an 294 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 6: extreme physical event for it to be market moving, and 295 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 6: not that anyone wishes for that, but I think when 296 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 6: we have such high disapproval ratings for both candidates and 297 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 6: so many independents who dislike both, so called double haters, 298 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 6: it's important. 299 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 5: Also the fact that the debate is taking. 300 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 6: Place before the conventions for the parties of July for 301 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 6: Republicans in August for Democrats. There is some chance for 302 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 6: what I call the Democrats kind of fantasy outcome to transpire, 303 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 6: which is that if Biden looks like he's really not 304 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 6: up to the job, could he be somehow convinced to 305 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 6: stand down. 306 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 5: I consider that very low probability, but it's not zero. 307 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 10: This is Bloomberg day Break Today, your morning brief on 308 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 10: the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 309 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 310 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 311 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. 312 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 10: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 313 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 10: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 314 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 10: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 315 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 10: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 316 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 10: ninety sixty in San Francisco. 317 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station, is also available on your 318 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
